Hi everyone my toddler is 2 & a half and about a week ago she started having really stubborn tantrums. I literally cant win. For example she asks for an apple. I give her it, she says no, i put it back and she goes mad screaming my apple. So i offer her it again and she repeats the same steps. This could result in a paddy lasting half hour plus.
If other peoples kids come around she goes absolutely mad if they try play with ber. I dont allow her to snatch or lash out at the other child so i remove her but she continues to go crazy on my knee. My friend wants to meet up friday but i honestly cant see how theres anything i can do at the moment as i cant get my daughter to be happy and content.
I took her to the park today with my friend and her son who is also 2.5. She was just teary & making out she didn't like anything he did from dinosaur roaring at her to cuddling her. She ended up a sobbing mess on the climbing frame.
She has been abit harder to get to sleep at night possibly loosing 2 hours sleep a night lately. She still naps After dinner. I tried cutting it out but her moods got worse. On Friday i told my friend at one id have to put my daughter down for a sleep. She didn't leave till 3 & my daughter just couldn't cope with being overtired.
Im really not enjoying anything with her at the moment. She runs of in the parks she wont listen. She's constantly crying. She kicks off in asda. She gets angry in the car.
Shes starting nursery in September just 3 hours 2 days a week. Im starting to worry how it will work for her as two weeks ago she was a happy go lucky toddler.
Is this a stage or me missing something?
